ancient cultures knew the benefits of massaging the muscles and skin to soothe soft tissue and

encourage relaxation

Modern studies have shown that massage can treat a range of physical, mental and emotional disorders including back pain, high blood pressure, and stress and anxety. Being the largest organ of the human body, the skin is enriched with nerve endings. When the skin is massaged it soothes the soft tissue and encourages the muscles and surrounding skin to soften and relax.
